Market Leadership Needs Message Leaders

Coaching and Consulting Services from Jim Karrh

Get Proven Concepts, Simple Habits, and Consistent Coaching

Organizational leaders come to Jim Karrh, Ph.D. when they need practical help with more consistent messaging and growth opportunities.

Most business people are already doing lots of things to try to stand out in a noisy world: advertising, websites, social media, customer-service training, and the like. They still miss out on opportunities to competitors whose products and services are no better (and often not as good).

Jim bridges the messaging gap that often exists among leadership, management, and other teams across the company. He works with leaders to refine strategy, but also works with mid-level managers and those in the field so that everyone can consistently share those critically-important brand messages. Jim knows from experience that you can “Manage the Message” just as you manage other key parts of the business.

Jim’s Clients Include B2C and B2B companies, Non-Profits, and State Agencies

Jim is in a rare position to help clients throughout all levels of their organizations. A recognized expert in buyer psychology, he brings proven concepts to the messaging strategy. A former chief marketing officer who built a program judged best in a large global industry, Jim understands the realities of managing. Through his work with clients on three continents and across many industries, Jim also offers fresh insights and best practices.

Different Clients Have Different Needs; Some Common Types of Engagements Are:

Co-creating and implementing messaging “playbooks” used across an organization

Our work is highly collaborative in nature, involving a client’s people and resources with a result of transferring tools and skills back to the client. Most engagements are completed within four to six months. Many clients continue to stay engaged with new or expanded project work – or want to make sure changes “stick” through longer-term coaching and retainer services.

I had the pleasure of working with Jim on a client project. He is both gracious and talented, a winning combination on a complex project with multiple stakeholders. He has an uncanny knack for understanding and synthesizing information, and then reframing that information in a way that catalyzes insight and understanding. An added bonus–he offers practical and actionable deliverables backed by academic rigor. I recommend him highly.

I have engaged Jim on two occasions–first, to assess our customers’ experience and then to train customer facing teams. Jim is clearly an expert but also very hands-on, engaging, and practical. Our teams enjoy working with Jim and their performance shows it.
